Intelligent Polymers for Nanomedicine and Biotechnologies (PDF)

Despite remarkable advancements in the field of biomaterials, there is still a great need for improvement in biocompatibility because almost all synthetic materials induce some form of inflammation and fibrosis over time. The development of intelligent materials that are capable of mimicking and replicating the adaptability and regenerative properties of biological materials is the primary objective. This book focuses on the synthesis, analysis, and practical implications of new smart polymeric materials in nanomedicine and biotechnology. It presents innovative research on various aspects of smart polymeric materials that offer new perspectives in the development of advanced biotechnologies. The experimental and theoretical issues discussed in the text reflect the impact of material properties in different applications and the recent advances in designing flexible structures that respond to environmental changes.
